Stock Guru scamster sold
‘copper’ dreams
New Delhi, November 14 Later, an income tax raid at the company’s several offices led to its “downfall”. More than two lakh people had invested in the company that was allegedly owned by the man named as Ulhas Prabhakar Khaire and his wife, Raksha J Urs. The couple, who had gained their trust, fled with their money that totalled to about Rs 500 crore. According to the police, Prabhakar and Raksha are experts in changing their identities and disguises. They have changed it numerous times to commit cases of cheating and fraud in Uttrakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Sikkim and Maharashtra. Their biggest case of fraud till date is the Stock Guru scam and they had started the company in 2010.

Kalam’s stress on strong rural India
New Delhi, November 14 Reminiscing about Jawaharlal Nehru, his working skills and holistic vision for the development of the country, Kalam said, “I remember Nehruji handling a vast variety of issues every day of the week. He met agricultural scientists one day, had meetings on Non-Aligned Movement the next day, and oversaw the Bhakra Nangal Dam getting operational yet another day.” Stating that the same dedication is required to solve the basic problems of the country today, Kalam delivered his lecture on “Dynamics of National Development”. Through his presentation today, the former Indian President highlighted a vision of transformation of rural India. Taking from his earlier conceptualized scheme—Provision of Urban Amenities to Rural Areas, Kalam focused on harmony between the public and private enterprises in the key areas like education and infrastructure. He also laid stress on generating revenue options from the art forms like music and pottery.

14-yr-old boy succumbs
to cracker burns
New Delhi, November 14 A 14-year-old boy in Nand Nagri, who was rushed to Guru Tegh Bahadur (GTB) Hospital last night with more than 80 per cent burns, succumbed to his injuries. “He was most critical among all our 90-odd patients who reported to us during the Divali night and all of them were given adequate treatment and discharged,” said Dr Rajpal, the medical superintendent of GTB Hospital. Though most of the patients who reported to the casualties last night were having minor to moderate burns, there was no respite for the doctors and staff at the emergency. At Safdarjung Hospital, a total of 200 patients walked into the hospital until today, with three-fourths of them reporting yesterday. Dr Karoon Agrawal, the head of the plastics and burns department at Safdarjung Hospital, said, “All were OPD patients with burns of hands and face, usually resulting from “anar” and spiral-shaped crackers. Ten patients came on the previous day of Divali, 150 yesterday and 40 today. Twelve patients came with swellings on face and suspected eye injuries. The patients kept coming till early morning.” As many as 68 people reported to the eye casualty of the Rajendra Prasad Ophthalmic Sciences Centre of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences where nine patients are still admitted with eye globe ruptures. “We had 40 patients yesterday who came to us with cracker injuries and 28 more came today. They had injuries from mild abrasion in the cornea to globe perforation,” said a doctor-on-duty at the AIIMS’ eye casualty. Similar was the scenario at most of the other hospitals. Forty-one patients reported to Dr Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital. About 25 patients were seen at Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Hospital’s casualty. |
